fall from grace

revenge is sweet
sour on your lips
i part you right
where it counts
i'm down for it love
i'm down on you
and i don't know
how i fit in

i'm feeling like this is
a conditional
release, a con.ditional
love

and i cannot free
myself from a fear that i'll break,
that i'll be, someone not to
measure up to your harrowing account
recount recast recall
your vote
to let me in

you'll cleanse yourself of
what feels tough
what doesn't feel good

and i'm wondering
if i'll make it past your
parole
this probational period of
my fall from grace
